Jira supports many issue types, but an agile development team will most frequently track work in stories. This session focuses on preparing stories for agile development in Jira. We'll discuss estimating and prioritizing with Jira, ways of capturing story information in existing Jira issue fields, noting tests required, categorizing stories, and some of the tradeoffs of using sub-tasks for stories.
